manderlyh Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 All I know, I learned from Walden by Henry David Thoreau: "I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of live, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion." "The millions are awake enough for physical labor; but only one in a million is awake enough for effective intellectual exertion, only one in a hundred millions to a poetic or divine life. To be awake is to be alive." "All sensuality is one, though it takes many forms; all purity is one. It is the same whether a man eat, or drink, or cohabit, or sleep sensually. They are but one appetite, and we only need to see a person do any one of these things to know how great a sensualist he is." "What is all ponds were shallow? Would it not react on the minds of men? I am thankful that this pond was made deep and pure for a symbol. While men believe in the infinite some ponds will be thought to be bottomless." "Explore thyself."

FuzzyMerkin Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 There shall in that time be rumors of things going astray, erm, and there shall be a great confusion as to where things really are, and nobody will really know where lieth those little things with the sort of raffia-work base, that has an attachment. At that time, a friend shall lose his friend's hammer, and the young shall not know where lieth the things possessed by their fathers that their fathers put there only just the night before, about eight O'clock. "Only the true Messiah denies His divinity." Confusious say "he who goes to bed with itchy ass wake up with stinky fingers" Sorry but I had to do it Good man, Confusious. Was about to quote him myself. Instead I'll add: "Everything will be good in the end, so if it aint good... its not yet the end." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eidolon Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

MOJO Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 The human emotional system can be broken down into roughly two elements: fear and love. Love is of the soul. Fear is of the personality. Gary Zukav - from "Seat Of The Soul" Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak. Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen. Winston Churchill Don’t compromise yourself. You are all you’ve got. Janis Joplin The only way past fear is to go through. http://www.sapphyr.net/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOJO Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better. ~ Albert Einstein ~ Nature is the art of God. ~ Thomas Browne, Religio Medici, 1635 ~ For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver. ~ ~ Martin Luther King ~ Our children may save us if they are taught to care properly for the planet; but if not, it may be back to the Ice Age or the caves from where we first emerged. Then we'll have to view the universe above from a cold, dark place. No more jet skis, nuclear weapons, plastic crap, broken pay phones, drugs, cars, waffle irons, or television. Come to think of it, that might not be a bad idea. ~ Jimmy Buffet from 'Mother Earth News' March-April 1990 ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOJO Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 "A person does not hear sound only through the ears; he hears sound through every pore of his body. It permeates the entire being, and according to its particular influence either slows or quickens the rhythm of the blood circulation; it either wakens or soothes the nervous system. It arouses a person to greater passions or it calms him by bringing him peace. According to the sound and its influence a certain effect is produced. Sound becomes visible in the form of radiance. This shows that the same energy which goes into the form of sound before being visible is absorbed by the physical body. In that way the physical body recuperates and becomes charged with new magnetism." ~ from 'Mysticism of Sound' by Hazrat Inayat Khan ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyMerkin Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Those that forget the pasta are doomed to reheat it. Take everything in moderation. Including moderation. Some days it's not worth chewing through the straps. Do not follow, for I may not lead. Do not lead, for I may not follow. Just go over there somewhere, please? There is no "I" in "Team", but there are four in "Platitude-Quoting Idiot". A journey of a thousand miles begins with a cash advance. Follow your dreams, except for that one where you're naked at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOJO Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Do Not Weep by Mary Frye Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glint on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you wake in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night. Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die!
